What’s the Story?
Midleton Educate Together is a National School in County Cork, Ireland. One of over 50 around the country the Midleton School first opened its doors to the community in 2008. It’s a multi-denominational school that believes no kid should be left out.
This is perfectly captured in the school motto;
‘Learn together to live together’
You can read more about the school on it’s website; http://midletonet.com/wp/
It also happens to be the school that my son Oisin attends. This year we need your support.
Every year the school holds a number of fundraising activities aimed at providing much needed funds to the school to help provide the 200+ students with the best education experience it can.
On December 25th, 2015 I’ll be taking part in one such fundraising event, the annual Christmas Day Swim.
At Noon I will be gingerly striding down the pebbly shore of Garryvoe Beach and running headlong into the frigid waters of the Muir Cheilteach (Irish Sea) where the average water temperature this time of the year is about 10°C.
The concept is simple. You give money, I make a fool of myself and post the videos and pictures all over the internet and ultimately my son’s school is the winner.
This year just to make things a little more interesting the plan is for several father’s from the school to dress up as Superheroes. So with that knowledge I’m going to throw this out there. Make the biggest donation and I’ll let you pick what superhero I go as.
Ever wanted to see Court dressed up as Wonder Woman? No me neither!
So with that I’ll sign off. Please help out, support a cool school and I promise I’ll owe you won. Post a link to your kid’s lamington sale and you can count me in, selling Girl Guide cookies? Mark me down for a few boxes. Just help us to reach our goal and have a laugh in the process.
Go raibh mile maith agat - Thank You
